A Message from our 2022-23 New Assistant Principal:
I am excited and honored to join the Wolford family. Over the past twelve years, I have taught K, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th. My favorite grade level to lead is kindergarten because of their curiosity, honesty, and joy for learning. While teaching second grade in Dallas ISD, I met my husband, Hector Rodriguez. Needless to say, teaching is our family business! We have one daughter, Hazel, who will start kindergarten as a Wolford Wolverine in the fall.
My passion has always been to impact student growth by supporting teachers. As the Reading Academies Cohort Leader, my role allowed me to gain experience by learning alongside various leaders with different expertise to shape me into the instructional leader I am today.
I am honored to have the opportunity to be a part of the Wolford family that is rich with the legacy and dedication of the teachers & leaders that came before me.

Our Wonderful Traditions at Wolford
At the end of each school year, we recognize and honor our hard-working students. One aspect of this celebration is the tradition of having our fifth graders walk through our building, while younger grade levels cheer and honor our graduating class. What a lovely way to say good-bye, wish bon voyage, and celebrate as we send off our fifth graders with our best wishes as they move on to middle school. All grade levels participate in a special “appreciations” celebration as well. Stay tuned for more information coming home soon to our fifth-grade families.
Also, on the last day of school, with the help of our fabulous music teacher, Mrs. Ludi Srinivasan, we will begin our day with a special flag raising celebration. All parents are invited to attend as the entire student body and faculty gather around our flagpole to end another wonderful school year. We hope to see our entire community come to help us celebrate too. On May 20h at 8:00 a.m. sharp, we will find our community gathered around our flagpole for this special celebration. We hope our parents can join us as we spend a very special time together as a school community before the start of summer.
Fran and Carol

Hello fabulous PTA members! We are down into the teens for number of school days until summer. I just can't believe we are almost finished with this school year! So many changes happening in the year ahead. I know change is hard and sometimes scary. I challenge each of us to look toward next year with excitement and positivity, but first, SUMMER BREAK ;)
I am excited to have been elected to serve as the PTA President again next school year! 2021-2022 was a huge learning year for me, and I'm glad I will have a little more experience in the year ahead. That being said- I NEED YOU! We have a lot of committee chair positions available. I'm listing them all below and have attached a pdf with a brief overview of the rolls. None of these listed are currently filled so we need moms and dads, grandparents, anyone who loves Wolford and will be a member of our PTA next year, to be willing to serve alongside all of those that have already taken on a responsibility.
Please know that you will never be alone in a position! We have an amazing team of volunteers that are willing to help, serve, volunteer, or donate at any moment.
If you are even the least bit interested, please reach out to me via email, text, or phone call and I will do my best to explain more about the position(s) you are interested in. (601) 953-9100 or Lnaquin80@gmail.com
Volunteers Needed for the following:
*Arts in Education
*Environmental/Grounds Beautification (Butterfly Garden)
*Council Delegate/Legislation
*Dad's Club (this would need to be a dad AND mom that would
partner in this position)

Enrollment Survey for Registration
With your student’s report card that was sent home, there was also a brief survey about enrollment plans for next year. The survey is important because it asks you to verify parent email addresses as registration codes and link for next school year will be emailed in early June. It also asks about any incoming Kindergarten students and whether your current student will be returning. This information is vital as it helps with all our planning, including staffing. Please complete and return as soon as possible.
Kindergarten and new student registration opened online on April 11 at https://www.mckinneyisd.net/enrollment/. Make sure to select the 2022-23 school year which begins on Wednesday, August 10, 2022.
If you have any questions about next year and registration, please call Kori Godfrefy at (469) 302-4700 or email kgodfrey@mckinneyisd.net
